Throughout November, Dolphin Research Center is saluting our armed forces by offering free admission to any veteran or current military service personnel, plus a guest. You need only show your military identification or other proof of service to receive free admission.

Thank you for all that you have done, and are doing.

Recently, DRC staff and volunteers who are veterans gathered for this photo along with Theresa, our oldest dolphin. Theresa is herself a veteran, having served in the U.S. Navy's dolphin program before coming to live at DRC in 1968.
